Hi Scott,
would you mind elucidating this point, or pointing me at some literature? Nardil fascinates me. The whole new v.s. old debate, the body weight / 2 dosage yardstick (myth?), even its mechanism of action. I don't understand why it must be taken daily when it takes 2 weeks for MAO to regenerate. But I'm not willing to try the suggested technique of dropping back down to a 15mg maintenance dose once sufficient inhibition has been achieved!Pete
